All i’ve got right now is flat… either way, if you’ve gotta send the wheels, might as well send both. The rubber seals would make me a little nervous on doing them for the first time. ---

i really see no point in spending $3000 on wheels that u are only going to use 3-4 times a year. makes no sense. stop conforming to the rest of the TBSS community and rock them summer long. ---
